"To thine own self be true" Yellowstone fanfiction

chapter 6 "grow up to be cowboys"

My father stood rip and I in the woods Infront of a fire. He paced the ground Infront of the fire. "There are some things in this world that should be kept to ourselves. One being the event that took place last night" I glanced at rip as he glances at me. "I need some reassurance. Reassurance that no matter what happens on this ranch stays on this ranch. You two are my most prized, most respected workers on this ranch I need it to stay that way. Some things are not assured by our words. Things like what happened last night could ruin the history of this ranch. I need you two to tell me that you would do anything for this ranch, you would keep anything to yourself just to save this ranch"

"Of course daddy"

"Yes sir"
We watched has he held up the Yellowstone brand. The brand was gleaming bright red. I watched it with agony, already feeling the pain of it. "But are you willing to live up to the brand?" My father walked over to me with the brand beside my arm. I pulled down my shirt exposing the skin between my breasts. I nodded slightly as I closed my eyes and mouth. Gently my father pressed the boiling hot brand onto my flawless skin. I inhaled sharply as the pain extended beyond my entire chest. He held it for 20 seconds. Twenty seconds felt way too long. I pulled myself away from it as I yelp at the bubbling pain. I looked down at it as my skin burned apart from my body. "Jesus" I panted. "Now unlike twitty, you have a choice. Are you going to stay rip, or are you leaving tonight?" Rip looked over at me then looked at the ground as he lifted up his shirt tossing it beside him. He nodded over at my father. The same my father did to me was done to him. Rip bit his lip in pain letting out a decent growl. my father pulled the brand away as he looked me in the eyes. "You won't regret this. I promise both if you"

......

This means a new begining for rip. It means hes a cowboy. It means he's sworn in. Means he can live with the other men in the bunk house. Means the cowboys are gonna get him drunk as shit Tonight. I banged on the door of Beth's bathroom "beth you can't take all the hot fucking water!!" I yelled as I banged some more. "Too late!! Piss off!!" She screamed. I kicked her door. "You Fucker!" I walked outside to the bunkhouse with my soaps and stuff. They had a whole different water system back there. So I usually just use their shower when beth is being a bitch. "Beth again!?" Lloyd chuckled. I rolled my eyes. "Don't even wanna talk about it!" I say as I walk to their bathroom. I banged on the door. "Who the fuck is in the bathroom now!?"

"The drunk new boy, good ol rip! Threw up his first shot" Lloyd cackled loudly. I shook my head. "you guys are assholes!" I watched rip groan from the doorway. "Stick to beer and whiskey June bug" I patted his shoulder. "and don't mix clears and browns!" I laughed as I shut the bathroom door behind me. I began to shower for about twenty minutes. I could hear the boys hooping and hollering. They were singing and dancing and doing god knows what. I usually join them in the fun, but I had so much mud and cow birth all over my body it was ridiculous. I suddenly notice the room got quiet. I stepped out of the shower rubbing my face with a warm towel, I then hear a creak from the bathroom door opening. I pulled the towel down from my face covering my body casually. I looked up at a young dorky rip standing In front of the steamy closed bathroom door. He stood and stared "can I help you?" I laughed slightly. "I..I..I'm sorry..I didn't...know you were in here"

"If you were sorry then why are you still standing there?" I tilted my head. He shrugged. "I..I don't know" I can hear the boys giggling in the other room. "Jesus Christ kid" I opened up my towel revealing my nude body. His face lit up with shocking joy. He smiled from ear to ear. "Holy shit!" He yells. "Would you get out of here now!?" I laughed loud. He hollared outside the door as he jumped and left. I could hear the boys clapping and guffawing so loud. I got dressed with my tight jeans and tight Tshirt on. I walked out smirking as I rubbed my hair with a towel. "You guys are fucking pricks!" I giggled as I sat on the card playing table. "Oh we didn't mean nothin by it honey!" Wade, one of the cowboys cackled. I smirked over at rip. "Feel like a real man now Junie?" Rips face was red as he drank his boos from a slick glass bottle. He nodded his head shyly at me as he sat snug in his chair. "How bout a good game of truth or dare" wade brings up. I shook my head "no!"

"Why not!?"

"Because every damn time I play that stupid fucking game the questions and dares are always for me!"

"That ain't true!"

"Fine! Whatever! Go!" The boys giggle to themselves. "Truth or dare twitty" wade chuckled into his glass. "Truth" I rolled my eyes as I opened a beer. "How many men have you fucked?" I gave him a grossed out look "see this is what I mean! Gross and dirty questions!" I shook my head. "None" I say simply. They all burst into laughter. Maybe other than Lloyd and rip. I furrowed my brows. "What's so funny?"

"Bullshit twitty! Serously! Answer the question!" I put my beer down. "I'm serous! None! I ain't fucked nobody!" Wade leaned on the table looking me in my face "serously? You're 21 with no men?"

"None! You think Im some kind of whore!?" Wade nodded as he laughed again "by the way you act and dress. Shhhhyeah I do baby girl!" He creepy ran his finger along the straps of my tank top. I moved my shoulder away form his reach. "Well I ain't no slut!" I say as I stood up. "I can change that!" He drunkenly shouted as he grabbed me by my hips tossing me onto one of the bunk beds. "Hey!!" I yelled as I pushed against his shoulders. I felt him reaching down my pants after unbuttoning them. "Stop!!" I yelled as I kicked my legs. I felt his finger nails scratch my lady parts as he inserted two fingers in. I screamed as I bit down on his shoulder. "Ooo I like that!!" He yelled through the laughter of the men in the room. He was suddenly thrown to the floor roughly, then quickly beaten by Lloyd and rip both at once. I quickly scooted myself up on the bed holding my knees to my chest as I watched them beat him to almost death. I couldn't believe that happened so fast and so quick. I stood up swiftly running out of the bunk house. I held my hand over my mouth as I sobbed loudly yet muffled. I squatted behind the barn as I cried. I reached my hand down my pants as I looked at the blood on my fingers. I heard loud footsteps running in my direction. "Twitty! Twitty are you okay?" Rip kneeled down beside me. He was out of breath. I can hear the anger in his voice. I shook my head as I cried into my palm. Rip pulled me into his arms as he held me against him. "he won't ever do anything like that again. I promise" he whispered as he pet my head. "I...i thought he was just playing aroujd...i didn't know he would do something like that" rip exclaimed. I cried into his arm as I gripped his shirt tightly. "your father is handling him right now...it'll be okay" I stared down at rips knuckles as they were busted open. I felt violated and devalued as a woman. I like to believe this is the money my life fell downhill.....
